tracking threads and email notifications?

[Metarie]

Hey there,

Is there any way to 'watch' a thread and get an email notification when posts are made? I used to get email notifications when I received PM's, but that's not happening anymore.

I dunno why it wouldn't email you if you got a new PM, unless you've changed your email address.

But as for watching topics/threads, at the bottom of each thread is an option to subscribe (red border, bottom left). If you've already subscribed, it will show up as "Unsubscribe from topic", or something like that. If you reply to a thread, I believe it automatically checks the "Notify me when a reply is posted" box, but you can check that by replying to this thread and looking to the bottom left of the options, directly below the typing window.

That is all.

What kind of staff do you hire around here, Phil?

Only the cheapest kind, dave.

The email function is working. I still get them. There is a checkbox you can untick to turn off email notifications though.
It could be marking them as spam if you haven't whitelisted thar. I don't remember if gmail considers thar spam or not.

Thank you thank you thank you! I've got lots of subscribing to do!

Seems to be working now!
